I could not watch the race but did the team not warn Vettel about fuel? I thought they knew the fuel level to a very high precision Not sure. Seems like they thought there would still be enough in the tank or they just forgot about the rule. Especially because they are claiming that there is approx...

There is no real way to combat these things from happening, but it is extremely unfortunate for the sport when one car takes out several title contenders just like that. The grid penalty that Bottas has received is effectively meaningless as the two Red Bulls (and perhaps other cars too) will need ...

Is it a good thing when his party is heavily responsible for a lot of the vaccine hesitancy around? It's like praising a firefighter who's gone and lit the fire.

Yeah absolutely no one is being accused of anything. If you were, you would be able to view the thread. If you'd like more explicit detail feel free to send a PM but I can reassure you that there is no need to defend yourself or the like.

I'm not really sure what has caused the dearth of great political leaders at least in semi recent times. Although I semi agree with comet's take about political finance, that shouldn't stop personable/charismatic (imo a key aspect of a great leader) leaders from reaching the upper echelons of politi...

is dolans post about spreading and ducks about hospitalization? No duck 's looks to be talking about symptomatic transmission as well. Looks like Bloomberg's is talking about just 1 shot though, not 2. At least based off what duck's says and Dolan only posting the headline and not the article. If i...

I currently don't know if the new maps will be barred in quicksearch if only 1 person has access to the DLC, as they stated the DLC comes with 15 maps and 5 minor African natives Probably will work like when warchiefs or asian dynasties came out. Simply won't be able to play with the other person i...

Did it a couple of times at school. Pretty fun to do. Would definitely do it again if I got the chance. No idea how different it would be now that I'm older.

Hot take, maybe controversial: Democracy leads to collapse of society. I'd actually like to hear the argument for this. To me it more seems like: society is always collapsing (could also just be seen as changing) > democracy has gained much more popularity in the past 300 odd years > at the same ti...

EU passes derogation allowing email and messaging apps to search messages for “suspect content” The European Parliament (EP) on Tuesday passed the ePrivacy derogation with 537 votes in favor, 133 against and 20 abstained. Activists and privacy-friendly members of parliament (MEPs) are slamming it a...

This shit is just scary af. How it feels like everyone has already forgotten about this just seems insane to me. https://youtu.be/jWJVMoe7OY0 Shoulda just shot to kill tbh ngl I think they probably would've if they had more cops there to begin with. But I think they feared the significant chance th...

Aka more money in pfizer pocket. Ngl this might be one of the largest wealth transfers in human history since British Raj Could be slightly exaggerated Could be, but consider this, lower end of estimations put wealth transfer of British Raj at ~$9 trillion in 173 years. That comes to $52-$53 billio...

I just want my first shot :(

Never a penalty tbh Agreed, but it's still silly defending. He's on a rampage through the box and surrounded by 2/3 defenders. Someone has to get their foot on the ball, because they have to know that the second he puts it past one of them and gets the slightest touch then he's going down. It's the...

I'd just like to chime in a little bit in regards to the discussion about reports "not working". First of all, there are only a few of us, we all have jobs or study so sometimes we don't get to reports as quickly as we/everyone would like. Secondly, there are many reports that aren't remot...

prince finally producing some quality posting. Has hell frozen over?

I think its valid concern even if it's extremely rare. If I gave you 100 chocolates and said 3 of them are poisonous pretty sure you wouldn't eat any. Heck if I give you 1000 you still wouldn't. It's normal that someone would have the fear, what if it's me? Though the benefits outweigh advantage, i...

How close are we to a much needed reform of the USA's electoral process? What happened last year was one thing, but there is actually a precedence of elections being "stolen" in 2000 with the whole Bush / Al Gore thing that happened in the state of Florida. Depends on what you mean by ele...

Huh that source I posted earlier must only give you one free look at the site. It had showed though a few countries had tourism and travel geared to up to about 20% of its total GDP, like Croatia and Greece and many more in the 8-15% range. I'll see if I can find a better source. Edit: Just cleared ...

Any tier list with majority people in D tier shows its a terrible tier list as it doesn't conform remotely to any standard deviation. I expected more from you @Horsemen

Please back up your claim about "as main source of income and are built around tourism" if possible, of course. Although I hate to support carthage and his laziness in never providing a source, I will. He seems to be decently on the money in this regard. https://www.statista.com/statistic...

Are you implying that the reason why American society is deeply divided right now is because the filibuster exists and the Senate is unable to pass most of the tabled bills? And if the filibuster was removed, then these deep divisions in American society would get solved by the Senate being able to...

There's no political solution in the USA anymore. Whether it's Democrats or Republicans in power, it doesn't matter for the long-term, big picture. Hence the reason the filibuster needs to be eliminated. When political parties actually have the ability to pass legislation, they will become much mor...
